During President Clinton’s re-election year, director Roland Emmerich sent aliens to blow up the White House on Independence Day. Emmerich is as workmanlike as he is schmaltzy, and when he sets Channing Tatum and daughter Joey King into a benign White House tour, he’s fanning familiar fantasies of historical involvement.

Bone Tomahawk "follows a sheriff (Russell), a gunslinger, a befuddled oldster (Jenkins) and a cowboy (Sarsgaard) as they attempt to rescue a group of captives (including Carpenter) from a band of cannibalistic troglodytes." If you ask me, there just aren't enough movies with troglodytes these days.
